Thief steals £20,000 speed camera

A thief who stole a £20,000 speed camera is being hunted by police.

The camera was stolen from a fixed site on London Road in Sunningdale, Berkshire, on Thursday night or the early hours of Friday.

Insp Malcolm Collis said: "The theft of this camera is disgraceful. It shows utter disregard for the safety of other road-users."

Thames Valley Police are appealing for witnesses who saw anyone loitering near the camera to contact them.

Insp Collis said: "The camera was put on this road to slow motorists down because three people a year are being injured on this stretch of road.

"I would urge anyone with any information, or anyone who saw any suspicious people near to or standing on a vehicle near the camera site, to call police or Crimestoppers anonymously."
